Better Days to Come

[strout]

Well, my week end isn't going so good . Made new RO water for the tank Friday nite, turned it off before bed. Got up around 5 am and turned it back on to finish filling the can, pulled the RO hose out of the can and put the heater in to warm the water up during the day so that I could put the salt in when I got home from work. Welllll *ALL* *crazysmil I forgot to turn the water off, 8 hours later when I got home from work, the kitchen & dining room had, well, you can guess what it looked like. The water had went under the kitchen wall and into my carpeted bed room closet. Got the wet vac out and went to town and got most of it up and now have the closet drying out. My RBTA has been on the move for the last two weeks, got up this morning to find out that during the nite he got spread around *SICK* the tank by the power head. My clowns are swimming around the tank looking for their home. Maybe Sunday will be better.

Hows the tank other than that? You got the dosing pumps going? Any SPS? Hows the skimmer?

I think we've all forgotten to turn off the RO. We moved it into the garage where it does less damage if we forget. We have a float valve, but because we switch between buckets for FW and SW makeup, I guess we forget to use it.

The tank is on a holding pattern, and I am not using the dosing pumps. I am planing on the new tank after the first of the year some time around April. I jut got in a hurry before walking out the door for work and forgot to turn the water off. You would think that I would have learned by now not to do anything for the tank when I am in a hurry to do something else.

I know youve already started to plan everything out but if you dont want to change things for a while after the new setup than try and give it as much thought as possible! I mean I took my time with this build and theres still things I wish I had done differant!
